Introduction Reinforcement of crural closure with synthetic resorbable mesh has been
proposed to decrease recurrence rates after hiatal hernia repair, but continues to be …

Background The gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) worldwide prevalence is
increasing maybe due to population aging and the obesity epidemic. Nissen fundoplication …

Introduction The use of bioabsorbable mesh at the hiatus is controversial. Long-term data
are scant. We evaluated the world literature and performed a meta-analysis to determine if …

Laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair (HHR) and fundoplication is a common low risk procedure
providing excellent control of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease and restoring of normal …

Background Improved outcomes with the use of non-absorbable mesh (NAM) for inguinal
hernia repairs led to its rapid adoption for hiatal hernia (HH) repairs; however, feared …

Background Hiatal and paraesophageal hernia (HH/PEH) recurrence is the most common
cause of failure after gastroesophageal anti-reflux surgery. Crural reinforcement with mesh …

Background: Laparoscopic repair is the standard of care for patients with paraesophageal
hernia (PEH). Different prosthetic materials have been proposed to bolster the hiatus thus …

Surgery against refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease and hiatal hernia depends on
hiatal closure and prevention of either recurrent herniation or symptoms of ongoing reflux [1] …

Paraesophageal hernias should be thought of as separate entities from type 1 hiatal
hernias. Surgical management of paraesophageal hernias remains the standard treatment …

Objective. Studying of complications, connected with application of the net implants in
